From the moment I met Salem Samra MD, he was so caring and gentle. I had suffered a traumatic injury to my finger. I had an open crushing fracture with the possibility of amputation to that finger. He worked so hard to make sure that I did not lose the tip of my finger. It was a long road, but he was there every step of the way. He was just a phone call away if I needed him. Thank you, Salem for everything you did for me. I would refer anyone to you. I have to mention his assistant Sam who was the absolute best. She was so amazing and encouraging. She is wonderful and always available.

Do not hesitate to go to Samra Plastic Surgery. I needed a surgery on my wrist, which turned out to be quite intricate. Dr. Salem Samra was so compassionate and treated this surgery with the utmost of extreme care and knowledge, I know without a doubt I could not have asked for better care. Dr. Fares Samra assisted in the surgery as well, and I truly felt I had a double blessing in my surgery. I had not a doubt in my mind that the extreme care taken would provide an excellent outcome. And it did. My wrist is in perfect shape. This is a compassionate and highly educated practice, and I thoroughly recommend Dr. Salem Samra for any concerns you may have.

I recently was referred to The Samra Group because I wanted to get a mole on my arm removed, mostly for cosmetic reasons. I met with Dr. Salem Samra and I was very impressed. After the mole was removed and it was biopsied we found out it was the beginning stage of skin cancer. To be safe, I had to get more tissue removed to ensure the borders were clear. I cannot express enough how pleased I was with Dr. Salem Samra. He was extremely professional and made sure I was comfortable during the procedures and eased my nerves throughout the entire process. Everyone I came across at the practice was very kind and helpful. I am so thankful for all of their help.

Dr. Sal was a wonderful doctor. I always go to him for fillers and plan to have all future cosmetic surgeries with him. He’s warm, very skilled, calm and caring. He was very careful with my injections. I’ve been to several plastic surgeons before, but none have been so meticulous and careful in the entire process. I was really shocked at how little pain I felt, with no swelling! He’s got gentle and skilled hands. So happy with my experience each time. The office staff is great too! And the spa has a relaxing atmosphere.
